Trying to find Hyde

Hi, do you know anything about the parents of WILLIAM HYDE, born about 1810? The 1841 census has him aged 30 but the 1851 census says he was 43! I'm pretty sure it is the same person as all the family members agree. He was born in Mellor, Derbyshire. He married Hannah Shaw, born 1815 in Saddleworth, Yorks and was dead by the 1861 census. One World Tree has info on Hyde ancesters but there were at least 3 William Hydes born in that locality at around that time. The question is which one could he have been? One was born c1812 of Hamnett Hyde & Betty Kirk, another was born c1808 of William Hyde & Ann Jackson and another was born c1808 of Thomas Hyde & Ellen Saxton. The last two would have been first cousins. Any info would be gratefully received. Good luck with own searches too! Michael
